Summary
A crucial part of Rome's mythos is its foundation myth: Aeneas, who came from Troy to become Rome's founding father. In founding Rome, Aeneas founded a culture that was always ready to incorporate the foreign and the foreigner into itself. Rome saw itself as an open city, a city whose openness led the way for it to become a world power. Florence Dupont examines the myth of Roman foundation in its many facets, drawing a wide arc: from Vergil's Aeneid to the question of whether the Roman concept of an open state can also provide a model for an open society in the modern world.
